The department has two very difficult jobs to perform each year. Its first job is to prepare students for college. This is accomplished by developing, through practice, a thorough mastery of the fundamentals of the English language and of reading skills, by giving students the ex- perience and opportunity to express themselves in both creative and formal writing, and by encouraging the study of the literary styles of the great authors. Its second job is to prepare girls who are planning to begin careers directly after graduation. These students are trained in the prac- tical usage of grammar and reading skills and in writing clearly and effectively. The members of the English department strive to instill in their students an interest in the cultural opportunities presented them. To develop this interest the students are familiarized with the great classics and the works of the well known authors. Through the study of English, we acquire the basic skills vital to the complicated life of today.

Elaine Kahn, Phyllis Bailey, and Anne Schepler take notes on the signers of the Declaration of Independence. The history department strives to instill in its students a desire for knowledge of foreign cultures which have evolved since the beginning of time, for by acquiring this knowledge, students will become better citizens of their own country. The department undertakes many projects yearly. Per- haps the largest project this year was Eastern's participa- tion in the Model Youth City Council. Under the direction of Miss Mary Parker, head of this department, Eastern supported a nominee for the ollice of president of the M. Y. C. C. Ingenious songs, cheers, posters, and speeches were created for this candidate. United Nations Day is celebrated each year at an as- sembly sponsored by the combined efforts of the history department and the United Nations Youth Organization. All students of foreign ancestry participate in this assembly which is thoroughly enjoyed by all. One of the greatest services performed by this depart- ment is the presentation of a resume of historical events on the anniversary of their occurrence. This is a service which is educational and beneficial to all. Many dilferent types of history are offered. Modern Problems, which is the study of current political and social crises, is extremely valuable in preparing students to be- come open-minded citizens. Both ancient history and modern European civilization serve to teach girls'of the civilizations of the nations. This department plays an important role in preparing students for valuable, intelligent service to their country. octal, .fgfttcfies Standing, left- to right: Miss Parker, Miss Dorn, Miss Nelson, Miss Carnes, Miss Mackall, Miss Plitt, Mr. Wilson.
